Much More Of These And I Will Lose My Love Of Poker!!
Just finished playing a game and this one guy managed to inflict 3bad beats on me.
1 - He goes all-in for like 1000, its bout 5% of my stack so I call with QQ, he flips over K2 off suited, flop comes down 8,8,8, so i have a full house so I'm thinkin good, as long as a king doesnt come i'll be fine. A king didnt come, but the turn came the fourth 8. Giving him quad 8's with K kicker.
I mange to over it and get the chips back, but
2. He goes all-in and I call with KK, thinking it can't happen again. He has Q2 the flop comes with a 2 so i'm winnning until the freaking qiver comes a Q.
After this i walked away from the computer, made a cup of tea and tried to calm myself down. I get bk to the table and get garbage for like 20-30mins when I get dealt the rockets in BB. I'm loving it, I think yes my luck is about to change. someone goes all-in for their short stack and this other guys raises all-in so I call. The short stack had 66, but the bad beat guy shows 10(spades) and 3hearts and i show my AA feeling rightly confident. Flop brings no ace or 6 but does bring 2spades. The turn comes Aspades and guess what the river was.....................thats right you guessed it another freaking spade. giving this f*cking guy the flush and a tonne of chips.
I went on to finish in the 1st cash place, but i've just looked at the tournie places and he finshed 9th, winning nearly 3x the amount I did.
If this would have been a live tournie i think i would have flipped my lid and punched him or something.
I've decided that i'm giving up poker for at least 3days or so, coz i know my play is going to be affected by this.
